Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Brook
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
